2022 Subaru Impreza
Overview
There's a reason the Impreza is one of the most popular vehicles made by Subaru. It has everything you need: exciting power, fuel-efficient all-wheel-drive powertrain, innovative technology features, and standard driver assistance features. Add to it that the Impreza, like all Subaru models, retains its value incredibly well and the Impreza can't be beaten in terms of value. Available as a 4-door sedan or 5-door hatchback, the 2021 Impreza starts $18,795.* With the standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive on both models and up to 100.9 cubic feet of space, the Impreza is not one to be ignored.
The Perfect Ride For…
The adventurous driver that craves understated performance. With a luxurious interior and refined design, the Subaru Impreza offers capability that's just unheard of at this price point. With roof racking, a large cargo area, and a wide rear gate on the hatchback, you will have plenty of room for up to five passengers and their gear or luggage. The back seat fits 3 passengers, or you can fold down the rear seats for up to 55.3 cubic feet of cargo space. The large gate makes loading the 5-door model easier than ever and comes with roof packing capability, so you never have to pack lightly.
Drive and Handling
The 2.0-liter SUBARU BOXER® Engine produces a satisfying 152 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque. Drivers can choose between the standard 5-speed manual transmission or the Lineartronic® CVT transmission. No matter which transmission you choose, the Impreza comes standard with Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, so you always have traction when you need it. Vehicle Dynamics Control, Traction Control, and Active Torque Vectoring work together behind the scenes to produce a surefooted driving experience that inspires confidence, no matter what the terrain throws your way. Incline Start Assist holds the brakes for a few seconds so that you can engage the transmission and avoid the uncomfortable feeling of rolling backward on a hill. Not only does the Subaru Impreza create a unique driving experience, it does so with remarkable efficiency. Enjoy up to 36 mpg on the highway and 28 mpg in the city with a Premium trim hatchback model outfitted with the CVT transmission.**

Safety
Subaru has a reputation for taking safety very seriously, which is why the automaker developed EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology. This technology has shown to reduce the rate of rear-end crashes by up to 85% by monitoring traffic movement and warning you if you’re veering outside of your lane. Other safety features include Blind-Spot Detection and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, which warns you when there is a vehicle in your blind spot and also warns of traffic approaching as you are backing up with both an audible and a visual warning. To help improve the safety of both you and other drivers, the Lane Keep Assist feature will help you steer back into your lane if you veer off. The LED Steering Responsive Headlights and High Beam Assist actively track in the direction of your turn to enhance visibility the whole way and the high beam assist automatically switches the headlights from high to low when an oncoming vehicle is detected. To help with parking and backing up, the Rear-Vision Camera and Reverse Automatic Braking features enhances the visibility of the camera when backing up and the display provides guidelines to help you see the vehicle’s path or judge distances. The braking feature will detect objects behind you and automatically stop the vehicle. Another helpful braking feature, Pre-Collision Braking helps you apply full braking force and will even stop the car in emergency situations.
